Reviews
"We saw a performance of Madame Butterfly. It was spectacular. As a trained opera singer, I was blown away by the talent in this production. The theater also made special accommodations for our party. I was very thankful. I'll definitely be back to Source."
"Wonderful guest companies and occasionally had seen very talented performances. Last one of Master and Margarita was absolutely amazing adaptations of the hardest novels to do a theater adaptation. Other times with other productions can be hit or miss.. overall a good neighborhood theater over many years. Friendly staff."
"Went to an improv comedy night here on a first date and it was amazing! Very interactive with the audience as well! Had a really good time!"
"Black-box theatre on 14th near U st. Was there for the 2017 summer Source Festival. Attended three evenings of plays. Found discount tickets online."
"Source is an intimate theater located around U Street. I've been here a few times now for an improv tournament and I like the coziness of it. Although there aren't a lot of seats, the seats are at least comfortable and there is ample leg room. There aren't a lot of bathrooms however (only 2 stalls for women and 1 single bath for men/women), so be prepared to wait a while if you're male."
